Tankadin WeakAuras String – 5.0.4 update

<edit3> On several people’s suggestion, I moved the “ding” sound for SotR to 5 holy power, from 3. That even started to irritate me in LFR tonight.

<edit2> One more minor update – I added code to turn off the Sacred Shield icon if you don’t have it talented.

<edit> Sedrea noticed that the Glyph of Consecration was fooling the Consecration aura code. I’ve updated the strings below accordingly – now Consecration should work properly regardless of whether you’ve glyphed it or not. I also took out an erroneous trigger that was hiding Consecration if you were below 45% mana, since that’s no longer relevant to us.

While the WeakAuras setup that I was using in beta works, it wasn’t quite as clean or nice as I’d like it to be. So I spent a little time to make some improvements:

The numeric Holy Power indicator on SotR was a little small and hard to read, so I bumped it up to 20-point font and made it green to contrast with SotR’s background.

I added trackers for BoG stacks and Weakened Blows, and shuffled the icons around a little so that BoG/WB/SS are all grouped together under the large SotR/HotR icons. I also shifted the cooldon indicators to the right a bit so there’s a clearer separation between “buff upkeep” stuff and “available cooldowns”

I added a tracker for Holy Avenger to the cooldowns section. I built a custom LUA trigger for it so that if you don’t talent it, it shouldn’t show up.

I shuffled the icons around to better reflect the new cast priority. The order is now SotR->CS->J->AS->Cons->HoW->HW

I made the CS/HotR button debuff-sensitive. If your target doesn’t have Weakened Blows, it’ll show the HotR icon. If it does, it’ll show CS. A handy reminder in case you’re bad about watching the WB timer.

Here’s what it looks like in action after the updates:

And here’s the string. I use OmniCC, so the version I have below won’t have any of the numeric cooldown timers. If you want those, you’ll have to go through and change the Display->Text entry from “%s” to “%p” on the cooldown auras (i.e. “HotR CD,” Judgment CD”, etc.).

Try reloading your UI. I think when you swap glyphs, it confuses WA. I just tested it now and saw the same result you did, where adding GoCons caused the aura to bug out. Reloading the UI seems to have fixed it.

Oddly though, going back (i.e. removing the glyph) didn’t fix itself. I had to go into the trigger and retype Consecration for it to refresh the spell. I’m going to fool around with it a little and see if I can find a workaround.

As of today, pasting your string in does nothing. WA displays nothing in combat nor does it show the group as being active. It doesn’t even show any children of the “Theck” group. I’ll test turning off addons and try to isolate the problem.

Any chance you’ll update this if the priority changes due to the recent tank hot fixes? I saw your post in the Matlab thread and it looks like HW is now higher priority then Consc. Adding Holy Prism would be awesome too. Thanks again!

In addition to what Sedrea said, would it be possible you could add in a spot to account for all three 90 tier talents similar to how you coded Holy Avenger? I love Light’s Hammer and currently use that on both specs, but I occasionally switch to Execution Sentence for ret if it’s a single-target fight. Since you can only have one of those talents, placing all three “smart” icons like you did with Holy Avenger in the same spot would work.

If you do this, could you update the code in your “WeakAuras for other classes” post for ret? Thank you.
